SOLO, 418-2L, 2 Liter One-Hand Pressure Sprayer, Red and White

Solo 418-2L 2-Liter One-Hand Pressure Sprayer Pros: - container is tough, thick, hard, nylon-type material. Rap it with your knuckles and it goes "thock". Opening is about 1.5" in diameter for easy filling. - nozzle end easily adjusts up or down. E.g., to spray vertically, point the nozzle up rather than pointing the unit up. - at the nozzle's mist setting, liquid goes about 4' and disperses to a foot in diameter at 3' from the nozzle. The mist is so fine, it almost disappears. - nozzle can be adjusted from that mist setting to a 1/16" diameter stream which can be shot up to 30'. - with the container ½ full (one liter), once air pressure is attained, most of that liter can be sprayed before needing to pump again. It sprays for quite a long time before needing to pump again. - comes with a translucent, and removable, "cup" that attaches to the nozzle assembly; this catches excess liquid when spraying vertically and offers drift protection. - ergonomics are excellent. It has a comfortable main handle, pump handle, nozzle adjustment, trigger, etc. - chemically resistant construction allows use of cleaners, fertilizers, pesticides, weed control, bleaching agents, etc. This was important to me since parts of our previous sprayer of this size dissolved with bleach cleaners. - very lightweight; most of the weight when using, is the liquid you put in the tank. Cons: - with a ½ full tank, about 50 [quick] strokes on the pump handle will attain good pressure. That takes about 20-25 seconds of pumping. With 2 liters, it takes about 30 strokes. - container rocked slightly on it's 4 molded-in feet. Application of a thin stick-on felt pad on the shortest foot fixed that. Other: - This model has a short (3.5") wand. The 419-2L has a 9.5" wand and the 420-2L has a 23" wand, but otherwise are identical to the 418-2L. - As with most sprayers, it can't be used with acid, caustic liquids, potentially injurious chemicals, or flammable liquids such as gasoline. Summary: This is a well engineered hand sprayer at a reasonable cost. Significantly better than the comparably sized units we previously bought at Home Depot and Lowes...

This is the best sprayer that I have purchased. Even though it's small, it does everything I need! I love the way you can point the nozzle to exactly where you want it, and you can adjust the spray from a fine spray to a straight line. This is a keeper and I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a sprayer.

I love everything about this spray device. Cleaning it is easy, there is barely any leakage, and its very functional. I bought it two years ago and its still working strong so that speaks for its durability. I use it for misting my reptile and arthropod enclosures. The Zoomed and Reptizoo break very fast and are not great and this beats them by a million miles.

Much easier to keep my plant terrarium properly moist with this thing. You can get the spray to be just like heavy rain. I was worried the 2 liter one would be oversized for my purpose, but it isn't. Here it is next to a regular 16oz spray bottle. It takes a few pumps to pressurize it enough to spray the whole 3x1 foot terrarium. I'll update if it fails. The people who had it explode must have pressurized it WAY too much. You get a feel for it, you can feel the pressure increasing, I just do the minimum amount of pumps I need at the time. It's easy and very quick to pump it up. UPDATE: I've been using it for 3 years now and it's been great, no sign of failure. I use it daily for my terrarium and some orchids. Sometimes we use it to spray off the dog outside if he gets into something, very useful since we live in an apartment and don't have a hose.

I have had two of these made by echo, and 1 made by Stihl. I carry them around in my atv filled with woody plants and vine strength, weeds, and pest formulations. So if I come across poison ivy, brambles, crabgrass or ants I am ready. These small sprayers are invaluable but durability for me is key. Initially both other brands worked well, but became so problematic that I found myself fixing them more than using them. Eventually I bought these from solo and so far they have worked well. They haven’t stopped up or dripped at the nozzle and the shape actually makes them easier not to overfill. I am not sure the role of the plastic cone over the nozzle. Adjusting the spray nozzle is more problematic with it on. I may take one off and see if there are any problems. The bulbous shape also seems to allow more air pressure with fewer pumps.

So glad I finally got this. You can spray with one hand and manipulate plant with the other. Sprays easily and pumps up easily. Functional, easy to use. Did I mention I'm so glad I got this?

Great little sprayer with a very fine mist of a spray. Love being able to change the angle of the spray too. It's just a little heavier than I thought it would be, but that's because the reservoir is made of very heavy duty plastic.

I have gone through so many sprayers for my horse! This one is awesome. Have the shield on the nozzle which gives a nice even spray, makes no noise even when pumping, I spayed my entire horse never had to pump again, and the best part…. It has a LOCK on spray mode, never had to hold down the button. It’s light, easy to use and so far best sprayer I’ve had in years.

Muy buen producto, me gustó mucho, cumplióis expectativas

Good product. Works well

Pro quality materials and operation, at $24 it’s worth every penny. This from a company that makes nothing else but sprayers so you know they’ve got the expertise. Plus replacement parts are available for all Solo products, unlike the cheap Chinese origin sprayers that need to be discarded if they fail.

Buen producto y calidad
